II.—The Beaufort Beds of the Karroo System of South Africa
The great Karroo System of South Africa was divided by its discoverer, Andrew Geddes Bain, into four formations on lithological characters. They are— The Stormberg Series. The Beaufort Beds. The Ecca Beds. The Dwyka Series. It has long been recognized that the Dwyka conglomerate, which forms a large...
